WSOP Gewinner 2007 steht fest: Jerry Yang!

Yang konnte während des Final-Tables sieben seiner acht Gegner eigenhändig vom Tisch nehmen. Mit Tuan Lam aus Kanada spielte der Amerikaner 36 Hände Heads-Up.

Dann kam die Entscheidung: Lam ging shortstacked All-In und konnte den Coin-Flip mit AQs gegen Yangs 88 nicht gewinnen. Nachdem Lam zunächst die Dame getroffen hatte, machte Yang auf Turn und River noch seine Runner-Runner Staight!

 Tuan Lam erhält für seinen zweiten Platz 4,8 Millionen!

Der neue World Champion gewinnt satte 8,25 Millionen.

Jerry Yang lebt mit seiner Frau und sechs Kindern in Kalifornien.

Der 39-jährige Psychologe spielt erst seit zwei Jahren Poker und hat seinen Main Event Seat bei einem Satelliten-Turnier in seiner Heimatstadt gewonnen. Yang will 10 % seines Turniergewinns wohltätigen Zwecken spenden. Hier nochmal alle ergebnisse der WSOP 2007:
